Enemas and Release of Emotions: Is This a "Female Thing?"

Like @Jenny_Is_Kinky2, sometimes I cry when I'm having cramps and (or) having a difficult time expelling. My husband whom I love dearly has developed some dementia and has withdrawn from me a lot the past few weeks. Sometimes he can be outright ugly to me and today was a bad day. Around noon, I gave myself a SSE but I must have had a lot of gas because nothing went right. I got towels wet from the water leaking out of my rectum. When I was expelling the little water that I retained, I just broke down and cried. A broken heart and a shitty enema.

So much I have learned from my naturopath about how our bodies function, including the connection between our brain and GI tract that governs so much of our emotions.

My original question whether the emotions we feel from releasing an enema is a "female thing?" Not necessarily, she says. It's more common for women to show their emotions with "a good cry," but men typically don't feel it as strongly. Crying can be healthy during an enema, she says. Feeling an "emotional release" during or following an enema is, in fact, quite common.

Interesting thread. I should have mentioned in post #26 that I never cried. Even as a child, I never cried during my enemas. Actually, back then I was very defiant when I got an enema, not outwardly, but inwardly I would think that I could defeat the power of the enema from working… Guess I was thinking it could be mind over matter… Ha, very foolish since my enemas back then were extremely strong - made from allot of Ivory Flakes dissolved in a pot of water that had to be heated up to close to a boil on the stove to dissolve all the soap.. then cooled to hot enema temp and given via bulb.

I used to get very” randy” during my preteen years and do goofy stuff like naked jumping Jacks in front of my sisters with a hardon ,they would holler and scream for mom then she would come upstairs and March me into the bathroom and give me an enema and I would have a dry orgasm that calmed me down and I would be good for 2 weeks than the cycle would repeat itself, it finally stopped when I learned to masturbate around 12/13yrs.

I think anytime we can release our emotions in a sensible, non-destructive manner is a good thing. With COVID still affecting our lives and all the other terrible things happening in the world right now, I sometimes feel that I need to clear my brain, which science has discovered is connected to our digestive tract. Duh!

In times like this, I don’t need a shrink, I have an enema bag! And if I have a good cry in the process, so much the better. Nothing against the guys, they are invited to join in too, but I do think it's mostly “a female thing” – and it can feel amazing.

@Moms_Egirl , so sorry to hear of the issues you're having. I don't know you, but if you are not getting help, get some. Please. It only gets worse from here. My ex's Mom died of Alzheimer's. It was not pretty. She did not live with us, but it was still terrible.

Enemas always help me get shit off my mind 😂……it relaxes me and makes me horny and well you know a release of tension.

I don’t need a shrink, I have an enema bag!

Amen, @Vicki_V ! Some “me” time with my trusty bag and my nozzle collection will clear my mind and have me feeling better both mentally and physically in the span of a few hours. And over the past couple of years I have resorted to this particular treatment regime more than a few times!

New here on Zity. Hope to make some new friends. Enemas are an excellent way for me to get rid of stress. I enjoy the sexual excitement of anticipating and taking an enema since getting them as a child and having my first orgasm at 13 from a self administered enema. I do remember a time when I was masturbating while filling with a very warm enema. The pleasure was exquisite and tears were streaming down my face as I had a shaking orgasm. I felt like I was floating on a cloud as the 3 quart enema bag emptied. I love the relaxing feeling after a good enema session.

It is certainly a female thing, but I'll have to ask my husband if it is also a male thing, which would make it human. I have posted elsewhere where I believe that the true benefits of a good enema happen to be BOTH emotional and physiological. I've known this for some years even to the point where I have thought “I need an enema to put me in a better frame of mind.” To that end I find something therapeutic in getting out the bag, running the water, and getting undressed. That anticipation speaks to me and says that I'll be feeling totally better soon. What a great reason to respect enemas by taking them slowly, not too warm, and in a quiet, peaceful setting. Sure, light a candle, put on some calming music, and enjoy yourself.

@Emom It is certainly a female thing, but I'll have to ask my husband if it is also a male thing, which would make it human.

Love your thoughtful response! My husband is pretty good at covering up his feelings, but after nearly 38 years of marriage, I’m also pretty good at seeing through him. He has emotional strengths greater than mine, but deep down, he is just as vulnerable. That’s one reason I love him so much. Hang an enema bag above him when he’s feeling his worst, and he might try to be stoic, but he then sheds any resistance, which I agree is not so much feminine as it is human.

I used to say that a nurse with an enema bag could assert total control over me. I should probably rephrase that thought to say that any woman with an enema bag would likely maintain that control.

After all, you gals hit the nail on the head. It isn't really just a female thing. Many of us guys just desire the female influence at enema time.

The emotional/physiological release can be quite exquisite. Reciprocation can also add a great benefit!

Enemas are very cathartic. Even punishment enemas. All the bad stuff gets cleaned out of me, and my mood definitely changes. As to whether it is just a female thing or not, I don't know.

Hi. As far as emotional goes during enemas, the clean out can relieve emotional stress pent up, I believe thats why I continue to do my own enemas. It's a healthy process to relieve and release. I hope that helps. It's not a male or female thing just emotional stress release. Chitchat
